12/28/13 - Some people who have improved the recreation facilities in Hamburg were honored at a meeting of the township board this month. The Ann Arbor-based organization A3 had several representatives at the board's December 17th meeting. They were recognized and thanked for their work designing and constructing the Merrill Field Disc Golf Course, known as âThe Gulch,â which draws disc golf players to the area and provides a new form of recreation for local players. They began work in 2012, with construction beginning about a year ago and finishing on July 27th. The course includes professional and amateur holes, and its quality has earned it the #9 rank among Michigan's roughly 200 disc golf courses. A3 President John Reifschneidersays he is very appreciative for all the work the township did to facilitate the disc golf course's construction, and for the thanks and honors they have gotten from the municipality. The township also honored local Eagle Scout Christian Henning. For his scout project, Henning constructed two informational kiosks located at the Manly Bennett West entrance and the Merrill Trailhead. (TD)
